Helping, Sharing, and Caring Game

The Helping, Sharing, and Caring Game by Richard A. Gardner, M.D. Derived from Dr. Gardner's highly regarded Talking, Feeling, Doing Game, this board game is specifically designed for children and their families. Game cards focus on sympathy, empathy, ethics, values, personal relationships, self-esteem, manners, health, and consideration for others, rather than strictly therapeutic concerns. Families find that the game improves communication and gives each family member an opportunity to express his or her concerns, opinions, and feelings. Therapists use it as well, since many of the issues raised elicit clinically relevant discussion. Dr. Gardner's sensitivity to children and their needs, reflected in the game cards, makes this a wonderful resource for both families and therapists. For 2 to 6 players.
